@HentaiZonga
Why would one who owns a Parlor use so much gear into a worker person? What is the particular "niche" this character is attempting to fill? How many "Whales" exist in that niche? How deep are the "Whales" pockets and how frequently will they use your services? What will be the rate of return on his "investment" in this character? Just because this parlor worker volunteered does not mean she can come and go as he/she pleases. So the Con skils, Seduction skills, and Etiquette are of little use in a Parlor, as for seduction (IMG:style_emoticons/default/grinbig.gif) if a client visits a parlor he/she is there with a purpose, especially with the rates being charged. Why does a Parlor Worker need a image link? Sex change includes the new accessories for the new sex. Implant which type and why? Again why would a owner of a Parlor have his worker persons with cyberlimbs and give them stat increases? Raptor Legs? You are kidding? No DataJack for that BTL or Simrig, is the Simrig hot sim?Otherwise the BTL/PersonaFix is of not much use. Severe Cosmetic Biosculpting 3 in this character is being use for? Are the skills this characters has are they from before? during? being a Parlor Worker? WMS |

Are the skills this characters has are they from before? during? being a Parlor Worker? WMS This character is a transhumanist sex-fetishist (note the Augmentation Addict Quality). They're desperately looking for a way to crawl out of the body they were born into. They're essentially a "private escort", rather than a parlor-girl - their job is to keep you coming back to them instead of to the parlors. Also, these aren't stat increases - note the Strength and Body on most of these limbs is actually significantly less than normal. Basically, this person is the extreme end of cosplayers / furries / BE fetishists, who is paying for all their 'ware by selling their body and their mind. The Image Link is to interface the Empathy software (see "Emotitoys" from Augmentation) with the Skillwire system - I refuse to get the Emotitoy bonus without both of those 'ware, in an effort to make that bonus less munchkinny. This character is a hard-core fetish model / sex-worker. S/he basically represents what a lot of my RL friends have expressed wanting to be, once the technology becomes available. Does that make sense? |

Does that make sense? Again with out a Data Jack how do other PersonaFix's get used, owner of such Parlors want to get the most versatility for their nuyen? Again this is not close what a Bunraku Parlor do, yes it could be a call service but not a BunRaku parlor. Parlor Workers do not come and go at will. As for this characters fetish a good implant can take care of that. Getting Clients to come back is done by meeting their needs/desires, not by trying to Vamp them, not all clueless money bags. As for the Skill Softs there is no essence cost for implantation, ergo they can not be implanted, they no capacity stat so they can not be installed in cyberparts ie head/torso. Again what is the usage/intent of Severe Cosmetic Biosculpting 3? What is the gentile implant? Sex Change supplies the new equipment? are you adding back in the old equipment? If the character has a datajack or a DNI the need for the image link for the emotion software is removed. Raptor Legs no way. WMS |

This character really doesn't fit as a bunraku doll - it sounds more like a highly specialized, high-priced call girl than a bunraku doll. Bunraku puppets have their own personalities overwritten by the personafix - a high Charisma and social skills are pretty useless to them. Plus, her appearance, while appealing to a certain niche, doesn't exactly lend itself to being a convincing imitation of whatever politician or sim star the client wants to spend quality time with.
